Moving On...

No matter what your political inclination. I hope you were tuned in to the inaugaration. My 3rd grader got to go to town hall with her class to witness history in the making. I sat in the packed living room of a nearby friend with other nearby friends.

In trying to keep a "creative" twist to this blog let me tell you what I was impressed by...

Michelle Obama brought a gift to Mrs. Bush

Obama chose to speak humbly rather than poetically

The music by John Williams made me whistle and hum (in a good way)

Yo-Yo Ma couldn't surpress his smile

I wish I could pull off that hat like Aretha

I need to make a trip to D.C. with my girls

I loved the convocation of the Black man, the Brown man, and the yellow mellow man. (I think he is a brave man for introducing laughter into the service but I so appreciated it)

I am humbled by the means in which we, as Americans, participate in a change of power--with awe and dignity.
